Big upvote for this podcast,…

Big upvote for this podcast, one of my go to's for college football.  Love these guys

Knew I was missing something…

Knew I was missing something, don't post often as all the intel I come across is almost always already posted!

Had to triple check before I posted to make sure I didn't repeat too.

If the tickets are bought…

If the tickets are bought through 3rd party apps like StubHub as they stated the ticket office wouldn't know.

I mean those companies…

I mean those companies comply because it's the government coming at them, this is the NCAA that has 0 subpoena power.  I would think there's a lawsuit here for Stalions no?  Leaked private info?

Listen to the Tony…

Listen to the Tony Kornheiser show, they feature at least a song of his a week usually.  Great podcast too, top 5 in my book.  He has a couple albums named "Songs for Mr. Tony" that were all featured on the pod/radio show.  

He passed away in 2018. …

He passed away in 2018.  Keith has always been my #1 voice of college football.  "WHOAAAAAAA NELLLYYY" and "Goodbye......Helloooooo Heisman!" ftw.

Cautionary tale in this…

Cautionary tale in this would be the Rich Rod saga.  We would need to find a coach that would also be able to maximize current roster make up.  Not saying we shouldn't get a great/top notch coach but damn we can fall pretty far.

Hail Satan! Go Ass!

Glad he…

Hail Satan! Go Ass!

Glad he'll be on there with my hometown team, well deserved Jack!

Home state vs alma mater.....hmmmmmm

Article only covers back half of the 100 games.  Will probably be in the games ranked 50-1 installment whenever that comes out

article only covers games ranked 100-51, just half of his list.  Should be in the next installment of 50-1

@Brian, Connelly only covers…

@Brian, Connelly only covers games 100-51 on that article.  ESPN has a habit of releasing things like this in installments.  I guarantee this year's edition of The Game will be in the 50-1 part of the article.

So greatly deserved, what a deserving nomination.  Great example of a consummate professional, extremely proud of his accomplishments.  Bravo!

South Carolina.  Share an…

South Carolina.  Share an acronym with SoCal, differentiating between the two in this case.  I've also seen SCar used to avoid confusion.

I do a college pick 'em!  Top 25 + Big Ten and we pick against the spread.  Makes it a bit tougher. 

Any suggestions on my picks?

The Tony Kornheiser Show:

 

Tony Kornheiser of PTI fame is an old man yelling at cloud along with a list of who's-who's in Washington DC.  Breaks down largely everything.  Has Steve Sands of the golf channel, Cris Salizza (sr political editor at CNN),  Torie Clarke (big time political advisor), Howard Fineman (Editor of the Huffington Post), David Aldridge (TBS NBA reporter), Micheal Wilbon (PTI co-host and avid Chicago sports fanatic), Brian Windhorst (ESPN Sr Writer and basically Lebron's biographer), and the list goes on and on.  Guy is extremely entertaining and has the pull to get anyone who's anyone on his podcast.  Can transition from what cases the supreme court is hearing to what went wrong with his swing on his last round or what the family ate at the latest cook out like a champ.  Highly, HIGHLY, recommend.

How Did This Get Made:

 

Rafi and Andre from "The League" along with multiple other widely known comics watch movies and take them to task in comedic fashion.  Absolutely fantastic, cannot recommend enough.

Add to that list Hardaway Jr…

Add to that list Hardaway Jr and Burke.  Maybe's would be GRIII, Stauskas

You saw the post a while back about one of our ex-gymnasts signing on with WWE right?  Kid is gonna be special.

2 hours in the iron maiden, tarred and feathered, banished to Ohio.

Add into that the misfit toys

Add into that the misfit toys references and Duncan Robinson's interview in the locker room.  Beilein and his staff saw the pieces, the players put the puzzle together on the court, they've grown together and are one resilient bunch.  +1

Still a fan of Michigan Shameful University.  Saw it on here during the trial and it's fitting.

Burn. It. Down.  From the

Burn. It. Down.  From the beginning, nothing of the current administration nor their replacements should have anything to do with this university.  "But they won't know how we do things in EL, the Spartan way!" GOOD.  Bring in people who will actually protect the students and not bloviate.

...and right about then I

...and right about then I noticed the lawyer had a really long neck and an elongated head.  It was the d@mn Loch Ness monster!  I said "get out of here Loch Ness monster, I ain't givin' you no tree fiddy"

Plus they look like they're

Plus they look like they're from Gryffindor.  I honestly can't look at them with their scarves and not see Harry Potter.  I mentioned during the game tonight they should've trotted out a team manager in round glasses with a scar on his forehead to guard someone.

I know in the Houston game

I know in the Houston game the guy was a ~60% shooter but he was 8/9 on the night iirc.  Fouled, on the line, missed both, Poole hits a program highlight shot.  Yes I know Robinson hits 89.7% but still, this is the NCAA tournament.  Money is on the line, last game of the year Brent can't hold anything back.  Crazier things have already happened this year, throw caution to the wind.

Coach K should be ok against them.  Decent coaching goes a long ways.

They entered the tournament

They entered the tournament 2-4 vs the top 50, they exited the tourney 2-4 vs the top 50.

double post for some reason, sorry

I honestly had to wait for

I honestly had to wait for the replay to see the contact, I didn't see much from the broadcast.  Was close but personally I wouldn't have whistled it.

I honestly wish the refs had

I honestly wish the refs had not handed that game to sparty.  It was a travesty honestly.  ~10-7 minutes left in the 2nd half they just called any touch a bucknell player had on a sparty and swallowed the whistle when they mugged any bucknell player on d.  4 trips was all it took and sparty then had a 12 pt lead that they could sit on.  The arrogance and the "physical basketball" bs is intolerable from those people, you deserved better.

Not enough time has passed

Not enough time has passed yet guys.  Glenn Rice had the earliest honorarium and that was 16 years after he was here.  It's been 5, hold your horses.  The whole team will be back and honored at some point.

I was very pleased when he

I was very pleased when he was roundly booed when introduced.  Just not a fan of the man's policies and the direction he's taken the B1G.  B1G network was a homerun, initial expansion was ok, but seemingly everything else has been poorly informed and executed.

93 WD, we vacated 7 in the 90's for the recruiting scandal.  I'm all for counting wins but Louisville is doing that for their Nat Champ in 2013 and we're better than that.

I fully acknowledge I'm not a

I fully acknowledge I'm not a bball savant but every Minnesota game I watched both last season and this season seemed chaotic.

I guess I'm just not impressed with the boy king's coaching ability up there or approach.  They just literally threw junk at the rim and sold out for o rebs to get points, I couldn't see much a semblance of coaching at all unless he said "there's the basket, get on your horse, attack, don't worry about shot quality just throw it up"

Their 5 seed last year has been roundly discussed here and by the guys on multiple podcasts, this season they lost one of their better players to expulsion for multiple sexual assaults.  Do they even have a semblance of a team anymore?  Their game against us at Chrisler looked like their best played game all season, he may get another year but what hope lays on the horizon?

The Missouri River splits the

The Missouri River splits the state roughly in half, east river is a lot like Iowa/southern Minnesota/Illinois:  corn, soy beans, hogs, it's flat, lot more water.

West river is entirely rolling hills and plains, can't grow much, not a lot of water, lot of cattle ranches, but dammit we have the Black Hills and I'll take that over a 2018 NCAA hockey regional site any day.

I have a wholesome South

I have a wholesome South Dakota boy exterior, I had no idea he was from my home state.  I.....I don't know how to feel about this right now.

 

Edit:  Nm he's from east river, I get it now.

Any accredited school falls

Any accredited school falls under the USDE's authority.  You get money from the Dept of Education for Pell Grants and federal loans for your students and student-athletes, they can investigate funding of a school and how they use the funds.

Someone said it yesterday or Friday, I think Yahoo has a ton more on this and is dribbling it out to last through at least March Madness.  Like you said there's just a ton of evidence provided by just Dawkins thus far, has to be more coming from the Adidas execs minimum.

Delaney and Bettman are the worst commissioners I've ever seen in sports.

I thought Bush himself was implicated in that as well.  Hotel rooms, meals, etc not just his parents?
